AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The compound effectively reduces inflammation and improves corticosteroid sensitivity in lung tissues, offering a safer and more efficacious treatment option for COPD and severe asthma.

Problems solved by technology

Earlier generations of compounds were highly toxic due to the ubiquitous expression pattern of these isoforms and off-target effects of the compounds.
Kuma discussed the possibility that the conformational change caused by the binding of the inhibitor to the MAPK protein may affect the structure of both its phosphorylation site and the docking site for the upstream activator, therefore impairing the phosphorylation of p38 MAPKs or JNKs.
However, the major obstacle hindering the utility of p38 MAP kinase inhibitors in the treatment of human chronic inflammatory diseases has been the toxicity observed in patients.
This has been sufficiently severe to result in the withdrawal from clinical development of many of the compounds progressed, including all those specifically mentioned above.

[0587]

[0588]To a solution of CDI (424 mg, 2.62 mmol) in dry DCM (5.0 mL) under N2 and was added solid 3-tert-butyl-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-5-amine (600 mg, 2.62 mmol) in four equal portions over 10 min and the resulting yellow solution maintained at RT for 16 hr. An aliquot of this solution (0.4 mL, 0.21 mmol) was added to a solution of Intermediate B1, (26 mg, 80% pure, 0.071 mmol) in dry DCM (0.5 mL) and the reaction mixture kept at RT for 16 hr and then quenched by the addition of MeOH (1.0 mL). After 5 min the mixture was evaporated in vacuo and the residue was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2, 4 g, EtOAc in isohexane, 0-50% gradient elution) to afford impure product as a colourless oil. This material was dissolved in EtOAc (1.0 mL) and precipitated by the addition of isohexane (10 mL). The supernatant was decanted and the solid was purified by flash column chroma...

An aliquot (1.4 ml, 0.65 mmol) of this solution was added to a solution of Intermediate B2 (138 mg, ˜80% purity, 0.314 mmol) in dry DCM (2.0 mL) and the reaction mixture was maintained at RT for 16 hr. A second aliquot of the CDI adduct (0.40 mL, 0.21 mmol) was added and the mixture was warmed to 35° C. for a further 24 hr. The reaction mixture was quenched by the addition of MeOH (1.0 mL) and after 10 min was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash column chromatography (SiO2, 12 g, EtOAc in isohexane, 0-100% gradient elution) to afford impure product as a colourless oil. This material was taken up into EtOAc (2.0 mL) and then ...

Abstract

There are provided inter alia compounds of formula (I)wherein R1, R2a, R2b, R3, R4, L, X, R5 and R6 are as defined in the description for use in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The invention relates to compounds which are inhibitors of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase enzymes (referred to herein as p38 MAP kinase inhibitors), for example the alpha and gamma kinase sub-types thereof, and their use in therapy, including in pharmaceutical combinations, especially in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory diseases of the lung, such as COPD.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Four p38 MAPK isoforms (alpha, beta, gamma and delta respectively) have been identified, each displaying a tissue-specific expression pattern. The p38 MAPK alpha and beta isoforms are ubiquitously expressed throughout the body and are found in many different cell types. The p38 MAPK alpha and beta isoforms are inhibited by certain known small molecule p38 MAPK inhibitors. Earlier generations of compounds were highly toxic due to the ubiquitous expression pattern of these isoforms and off-target effects of the compounds. More recent inhib...
